Creating a 3D Model of Your Runescape Character

Have you ever wanted to bring your favorite Runescape character to life in stunning 3D? In this guide, I will walk you through the process of creating a 3D model of your character that you can even 3D print. Follow along to learn how to start this exciting project!

1. Accessing the Player Profile on RuneApps.org

To begin, head over to RuneApps.org and navigate to the player profile section. Here, you will find a tool developed by Bert, the creator of Alt1, and the proud owner of RuneApps. Click on the player profile to open the scanning interface.

2. Scanning Your Character

Ensure that you are wearing the equipment you want to be scanned on your character. This step is crucial for capturing the specific look you desire. Make sure your player profile is set to public and has an examine text available. Once ready, initiate the scanning process by clicking on your character.

3. Exploring Different Character Models

Take your time to browse through various character profiles on RuneApps to find a design that resonates with you. From intricately detailed models to simpler ones, there is a wide range of options to choose from. Once decided, proceed to download the desired character model.

4. Importing the Model into Blender

Next, open Blender, a powerful open-source 3D modeling software. Import the downloaded STL file into Blender to start working on your character model. The imported model may appear oversized, so make sure to scale and position it correctly within the workspace.

5. Refining the Model for 3D Printing

While Blender offers a multitude of tools for advanced editing, focus on preparing your character model for 3D printing. Address any issues with the mesh, such as non-manifold geometry and floating elements like capes or accessories. Ensure that the entire model is connected and solid for an optimal printing result.

6. Finalizing Your 3D Model

After fine-tuning the model, you are now ready to save it for 3D printing. Simplify the design by removing any complex or detached parts to streamline the printing process. Save the refined model in STL format, ready to be sent for printing at platforms like Tree Stock or 3D Hubs.

Conclusion

Creating a 3D model of your beloved Runescape character is a rewarding endeavor that allows you to bring virtual creations into the physical realm. Embrace this creative journey, and don't hesitate to share your unique prints with the community. Let your imagination soar as you delve into the world of 3D modeling!
